The Development of Poetry Text Materials Based on Poet’s Experience

Abstract

This study aims to overcome the limitations of textbooks. Lesson textbooks often only provide basic material about writing poetry without developing how creative it is. This makes the learners difficult in the process of writing poetry. Therefore, the solution of the problem is to develop poetry writing materials based on the poet's experience to be used in the learning process. This research method is using research and development. Based on the results of the interview can be concluded that the ability to write poetry is determined based on an understanding of the elements and forms of poetry writing as well as poet's experience. The process of writing poetry taken through several stages: (1) seeking ideas based on experience; (2) to process the idea by looking for impression and implied message; (3) deepening into the heart and mind; (4) conduct the process of contemplation and reflection, by living, thinking, feeling and interpreting every event; (5) begin the writing process by concreting the experience; (6) revise the poetry product. The developed teaching materials are presented from the basic competencies of the knowledge and skill competence learning. Based on experiments on teaching materials developed it is known that the average value of the ability to write poetry exceeds the minimum criterion score, so that the teaching materials used have been effective. Teaching materials can help learners learn activities become more independent, get a positive response from the content, appearance, and use of language.

“…Therefore the same response also occurs during the learning trials using teaching materials that are developed based on the creative process, the responses of students are very enthusiastic and the resulting work products are more varied. Poetry text teaching materials that are added to the creative process in producing works are in line with similar learning from teaching materials developed based on the poet's experience in producing poetry texts (Kusmana, Jaja, and Mutiarasari: 2019). The students have different responses to learning that uses teaching materials taken from textbooks, students are encouraged to be more creative in producing poetry texts that they make.…”

Development of Folklore Teaching Materials Based on Local Wisdom as Character Education

“…The availability of teaching materials will facilitate and help students and teachers in learning. Teaching material is one of the most important parts in the learning process because there is a number of information, instructions, processes, and evaluations that support learning activities to achieve goals [2,11]. Teaching materials are content that needs to be learned by students in the form of print or facilitated by the instructor to achieve certain goals.…”

“…Folklore is not only a folk story without meaning or fairy tales to put children to sleep, but folklore has a tradition of neglect, entertainment and education. Folklore not only tells the origin of the occurrence of a place but also tells about positive behavior whose presentation is adjusted to current conditions [2,17,19].…”

“…In the development of psychomotor abilities, it is not possible in at the end of the lesson students develop folklore, but what is most possible is to develop ideas or ideas from folklore as inspiration that can be developed into a short story. Thus, the development of student creativity can be built through the development of attitudes by training students to implement the values of local wisdom of a folklore into the short stories they make [2].…”

“…From this learning in addition to students getting to know local wisdom in their area, the development of teaching materials extracted from local wisdom will be very beneficial for students in linking teaching materials based on the social context of the community [3]. The folklore can be studied for its structure so that it can be used as teaching material that has positive values and provides many benefits to students [2,8]. The values contained in folklore need to be maintained and passed on to future generations.…”
